Answer:

The Faraizi movement (Bengali: ফরায়েজি আন্দোলন, romanized: Forayezi Andolon) was a movement led by Haji Shariatullah in Eastern Bengal to give up un-Islamic practices and act upon their duties as Muslims (fard). Founded in 1819, the movement protected the rights of tenants to a great extent.
